Wonder what he does, have buyers sign some kind of agreement, use custom locking fasteners on the cylinder, death threats................
No idea. But he hasn’t posted any videos in almost a year. I know in his later videos he talked about the limitations of the newer m-tronic and auto-tune saws. About only being able to take the 462 so far. I just wonder if he’s porting much anymore. I’m sure with the growing popularity of the internet some of those trade secrets are no longer secrets. Especially if there’s less material to work with on these newer saws.

That late winter/spring was some fun reading.
I don't know he's either a troll or mentally unstable but that the oddest thing he did
To claim to be hotsaws franchisee
As far as i know he never ported anything for anybody and never ripped anyone off.

Hello, the price he charge for porting a saw is horribel, and there are other porters that do the same work for a mutch better price.
One of the guy's got a quote of 700-900.00+ depending on which porting package he wanted
That's fine anyone can set their prices
Not my business at all
I just deal with the Porter's on here
I've never been disappointed
Trying to find a used 372 oem cylinder now to have ported is a pain.

Yeah I’m all for setting your own prices. Everybody has their choice what they want to spend and who they want to do business with. I’d like to have some understanding of his different porting packages. I know he features a lot of insano and psyko zipped saws in his videos. Would like to know his explanation of the differences in stages.

Wow! Good for him if he can command that price. I'd like to know what his customers think they're paying double for and getting, or if they even know they're paying double.

That's okay, we got a new guy here that gives all his details away, so in the grand scheme of things, it all evens out. LOL

Last I knew Gregg brewer and Gary Hunt charge similar.

Maybe his turn-around is shorter? Some people pay a premium for being coddled, as far as customer relationships go.

I’ve done a couple of saws for a guy who has saws done by him. Been told they run well and last. Can’t really see the value in the price tag though. A 460 I did was keeping up with his 500i.

this is him. Dave’s a really nice guy. I’m sure if you wanted to ask him how the saws are he’d happily tell you. You’ll see him mention a couple of the saws in his posts. He’s got a 357xp and a 500i done. Not sure if he has more than that.

David Keith, we follow each other on IG, seems like a nice guy. I think I sold deflectors to turorock in Japan too.
